Mir. Lyman II. Smith. Bn old time trailer, after sn interview with the YrmH Indians that accompanied sheriff Shi- oell and posse. decided to look into the matter. himself. He therefore telegraph. ed to Yuma for Indian trailers with whom he was well acquainted. They were sent here on the next train, He was by kindness of Major Moves furn- .sbed with an escort of ten soldiers. On tuesday night lssi they camped at the Mountain Spring. Next morning Ehen looking around, to then surprise they found the traIi pt a man that bad come down from the noun tain to the spring for wster Having apparently secured it the tracks led directly up the mountain in the di. rection of the cave discovered by the last posse. The trail was followed up and about 400 yards north of the first cave q second and much larger one was found The mouth of this cave IS not more thar two feet suuare but inside 1t IS of un known proportions. Some of the party present explored it to the depth Of about 300 yards but reached no end. This eyi dently was the robbers headquarters Finding themselves pursued the robbers mounted horses and went farther up the range with Indians and soldiers ID pursuit. The robbers were well mounted, aud after traversins nearly the length of the range they en- tered canyon lending directly tow ards the San Pedro.

Apache County Rustlers.

The St. John Herald draws the fol- lowing discouraging picture of the dep redstions of rustlers in Apache ana fsv- spai counties.
 From a reliable source we learn the following of the band of outlaws that have infested the western portion or this and the eastern end of fsvapal county for so long & time. Instead ot the warnings they have had through the Herald, having 8 tendency to check them in their deprsdstious, 1t has sp,, psrently made them more defiant and bold in their lswlessness. One csn scarcely believe that a set of men could commit so many and such RttrOclous crimes, and carry 1t on for so long time with impunIty but such IS updouot- edly the fact,
 Andy Cooper, one of the boldest and mort daring of these despersdoes, told one of the leading citizens of this coun- ty to his face, that he had lain Tn watt for him two or three weeks for no other purpose than to take his life. We sup press the gentlemsn's name for prucen- tial motives. They go openly and m broad daylight, and drive of horses ID sight of their owners; go boldly to hon est men and make overtures to them to

They are al this time riding the noun .gin trails ID squads of from three or four to eight or ten, and have become such s terror to the inhabitants of the local ity Tn which they have their haunts, that the respectable Rnd lsw-ablding people do their travelling Tn the night, while those who have incurred the dls- pleasure of any of the gang, are eompell- ed through fear of their lives. to live iu tue trush-iare not go to their homes. exoept under cover of darkness. There Is scarcely rancher ID that portion of Apache and Ysvapai that has not lost more orless stock, and undoubtedly this gang are thieves.
 On this side of the Mogollops their hesdquarters are on Canyon creek. On the other side 1t is Pleasant Valley, at The ranch of the Graham boys. Our in formsn. tells us that they have made this place into a fertilization, with DOT, holes commanding every approach. In side 1t is a perfect arsenal, crowded  well provisioned for a seIge. The fori IS never left unoccupied. There are always five or six men on duty, and ip case O sn attack those man are to hold the fort until endorsements arrive.

It was improved by an errorless game on the part of the Fort Lowell players and all of the earn ed runs made in the game.
 The Huschuca club is composed ot good players, and we can assure them 1t is not at sll disgrace, however surpris- ing, to come to grief Eat the hands of the nine that beat them yesterdsy-for its daisy and no mistake.

He nearly died from the obstruction of the throat Lowered him from the throat tO the pit of the stomach with ALLcocK's PoRoUs PLAsTERs. In two hours the cough ceased and his breathing was much easier. In A few days he was entirely well. kept the ALLcOcK's POROUS PLAsTERs on him six days. Since then, whenever he is af- fetted with colds in the throat, I never use anything but an ALLcocK's PoRors PLASTER, which cures him immediately. without any inconvenience. They are the best preventative of the croup ever known, and I would not be without them for any consideration.
